I'm here! Ok, so after about 48 hours of travel (El Paso to Phoenix, Phoenix to San Francisco, San Fran. to Seoul) I finally got off of the Asiana airlines flight at the Incheon International Airport. From there I had to get through customs, which was probably the easiest customs I've ever had to clear, get my bags and make my way to my hotel in Seoul. This was really uneventful, so I'm not going to dwell on it. I found the right bus on the first try, and hooked up with another CDI teacher an...
Seoul, Korea Rep. heatherannMonday morning found myself and about 30 other new teachers boarding the bus to our first day of training for Chung Dahm (CDI). We didn't know exactly what to expect, but we were definitely excited to begin the journey. When we got into the CDI building they directed those of us who were a part of the April program to go to the left and those who were a part of the Chung Dahm program to go to the room on the right. I had to get out my contract to double check which i was with because I had ab...

... further up some homes and beautifully decorated temple buildings. It wasn't difficult to find the shamanist shrine of Guksadong, although we were both a little disappointed with what we found. Not only was it somewhat unimpressive to look at, it didn't feel like a particularly special building. Perhaps this was because it was a part of Korean culture neither of us understood, and as such we decided not to linger.
Further up the hill were a strange ...
... Rectangle shaped face is really better
described as an oblong. A choker is a good option for people with this
face shape, especially if you also have a long neck. Tiffany necklaces
should be short and bold. Lots of drama and color will look great on
you. Long hair and long tiffany necklace will make you look like a fair
lady.
The black dress could be decorated with ...
... in the first video, it is accepted "over here" to brag about. I mean, I have sat silent as men, even in front of their loved ones, have bragged about how easy it is to find pleasure in South East Asia. Sadly, I sat silent.
So...my conscience has been pricked. I want to be the "older brother" who helps these children find freedom. At least play a small part. That is what I interpret the dream as saying ...
... the school occupies the entirety or only a selection of the floors. Within my building the program occupies five of the floors. Three of the floors are comprised of 12 classrooms each. The other floors contain team offices and the bookstore. As a teacher you teach alone but you work as a team. I am part of Team II. Team II only teaches on say Floor 3. The Teams are comprised of at least 12 foreign teachers, 12 Koreans who teach English ...
Seoul, Korea Rep. daveywavey... my way back to the freaking escalator! There is an extremely slim chance I will wander around and remembering the location of the vendor with the best deal! Although, I did notice that LG and Samsung completely dominate the product line-up. Okay, I know those are Korean brands, so I guess it makes sense. But, come on Korea! Diversity is good for the consumer, which is ultimately good for the economy! So ...
Seoul, Korea Rep. april.abate... two weeks in the ******* down rain of Vancouver cutting excess caulking from the windows of a 30 story building. It was tense to be climbing over the top of the roof to go all the way down one line, elevator back up, and do it again over the whole building. With a rain suit and knife we plugged away. Robbie gave me the tools to stay alive such as always looking up when coming out of the building to make sure there was nothing falling down from above ...
Uijeongbu, Korea Rep. morpheous... Then it might happen. You stomach starts to knot and churn. You might panic and think of options. It might get worse and you might realize that time is of the essence and a number 2 is coming on strong. So strong that you decide that you need to get off at the next stop and find a washroom. Your perception of the speed of the train is that it is slowing down on purpose greatly increasing the feelings of dread caused by the vicious number 2. Finally the ...
Seoul, Korea Rep. morpheous... although the time I had to appreciate it was brief... 3 seconds to be precise) where the people sitting next to me yelled "hana tul set" (ie, 123) after which we whizzed down to the ground, screaming our heads off. The entire ride took less than 2 minutes. I went to the bathroom, bough water and a snack then stood in line for another 2 hours, only this time it was a really freaky rollercoaster, which scared the **** out of me. Fortunately the adrenaline rush was enough ...
